 (To start with, I found this website via a blog site I follow regularly with my morning coffee. I would site his IP address but not my business to do so, although he would appreciate another plug I am sure! I am inserting this “disclaimer” in the event he finds me on here and to ease my embarrassment if the event arises! I, a devoted fan of his thoughts am such like a groupie but for the love of Pete, am not following him around. So for now, I lay low and watch his work unravel and provoke all hence my groupie like mentality in action.) LOL! I do want to thank him for the connection however! I really do, so thanks for leading me to a few more rips…!

Now, a little blurb of me!
Getting back to basics in life on every level. I left the big city and big city job and house. Sold the boat, bikes and extra vehicles for a little run down shack in the middle on nowhere on a little mountain top. Okay it is a big hill, but a really, really big one! Okay and its not a shack but an old run down 100 year old farm house previously abandoned! I may be broke but man I am now broke on my own terms. It is amazing how many things you can create with potatoes from the garden you grew! Poverty by choice is an ride of its own!

I welcome the new journey and still finding my way!

Growing out the grey and letting it hang down on my face as I please.

Throwing out the laptop, cell phones, suits and the “Chanel” must have shoes to match my stupid Simply Subtle Blush lipstick created with rose petals and jojoba oil of course!

Why?

This whole new journey revolves around a Giant, a carrot and a Tea Party, in that order.

Enlightenment came crashing through my door completely uninvited, I went runnng out with it. I have a tendancy to leap before I think…sometimes you win and sometimes you loose but does that even really matter?

Wicked ride!

Simplicity.
You only need one frying pan, no really and one good pair of walking shoes.

Relax.
Have a seat, take your stinky shoes off and have a beer with me.

Breath.
Is no longer a reminder.

Get Real.
Running from conformity.
Get out of the commercial while you still can!

Stay open and don't hold on to anything for too long or tight, you leave no room for new ones to come along.

I want to but my feet forgot how, useless little bugers. Here is to relearning!

Trust.

Let go.

Fall.

Why not, Monday morning will keep coming anyway.

Back to basics, simplicity and for the love of Pete, get real. So much talk.

Take the long and hard winding road, just to be sure, sure!

Changing, evolving and still stuck in my own dam ruts but pretending I am not! A long way to go perhaps?

Wanting, yearning and scared shitless with a brave face!

So “hallmarkish” but it starts with love…love….love….

So there you go…love…love…love…

CURENT BUZZ: My partner and I are into alternative home building, cob, stone and recycled, structures…earth ovens…tons of fun! Building anything with stone, sheds, shacks, shelters, walls, pits gardens…anything!

Organic & natural farmers, ranchers and wanne be rock stars!
